Four weeks to go. Am excited and nervous at the same time. Got my medical clearance. Next step is pre op . can't wait to get rid of the hanging belly.

I had a Tummy Tuck many years ago and the results have been fantastic. Even after I gained weight I did not gain weight on my belly. I have a pretty flat tummy. You will have the same results!

I had an extended Tummy Tuck back in 2011 and I've been thrilled with the results as well. I had lost 90 pounds prior to the procedure and I have since regained 80 of that. My tummy is still flat and the muscle repair has held up amazingly well. I'm hoping that after I am sleeved and re-lose the weight, I won't need any sort of revision.

Congrats on the tuck!!! That is definitely in my long-term plans. I am preparing for my surgery and have 100 lbs to loose. What was your time table like - how long did you wait for the tuck from the period you had your WLS?

Let us know how things go? So excited for you!!

Congrats!! Hope all goes well for you! I just had my extended TT 6 weeks ago.

Good luck to you!! You will be amazed at the difference it brings. :-)

I had my TT in Aug 2010 (No muscle tightening as I have hernia mesh in there) - And I am happy today as I was back then - My scar has widened a tiny bit in healing - But has stayed the same for years as I am same size etc. I Love love love my results!

Pic below is not long after the Op - Now it is similar but a white line... When I say it has stretched a bit I think that is cos my PS said to remove tapes and now if I did it again I would keep the paper tapes n for at least TEN weeks to support the scar whilst healing - Stopping it stretching a little - I know this to be true as in my other operations I did that and they haven't stretched like this one... You live and learn I guess... Still love it tho!

Thanks for your post Sue! I am looking forward to the day I can have mine, but one step at a time. My WL surgeon's PA said my appropriate goal (75% of excess body weight in 1 year) will be 75 lbs. At that point, she said it would be ok to undergo the TT, and then see where I stood from there (if I am satisfied, or want to reduce further). Just so ready for this!!
